I'm sure i've commented on this before, but nonetheless... The only thing i would change about the gear i have no (Amp wise) is the fact that i wish my head was a little lighter. I don't have any cabs as of yet (Till i get paid next week ) so i can't really comment on those. I have had a few dealings with other cabs over the past few months with my head, and i must say, that a Warwick ProFet 5.1 coupled with an Ampeg SVT-810e is one hell of a combination. In short, im not 100% happy, as i don't have any cabs, and i'm still gassing for a Mesa Boogie BB750 + 2x210/2x410/2x212 rig.... Liam

[quote name='Low End Bee' timestamp='1319020327' post='1408895'] This bloke looks like trouble if you ask me [/quote] I think we should all keep our Jazz's under lock and key, and not let them out after the suns gone in either. Welcome to the forum Mac. Liam

Welcome to the forum. Looks like you have quite a few projects going on there, i'll have to check them out later when i get chance. When i joined BC i didnt know about the marketplace, but i soon discovered the amazing deals in there... Liam

[quote name='bremen' timestamp='1318858627' post='1406956'] Must remember to pack a spare guitarist in mine. [/quote] Probably a good plan, spare singer might be useful too. Infact, get a singing guitarist, save space! Liam

[quote name='bremen' timestamp='1318858297' post='1406949'] My guitarist forgot his instrument at an audition, and went to get it while the rest of us took the piss...shortly before he arrived I realised I'd forgotten my lead. We didn't get the gig. [/quote] Thats why i always have a lead buried in the bottom of my gig bag, that very rarely comes out. Liam

[quote name='EdwardHimself' timestamp='1318854903' post='1406868'] Do you spend your time admiring other people's faeces? [/quote] No, but i have to put up with the stench. Its normally around a 7 or 8 out of 10 on the Sh*tter Scale.... Liam

[quote name='KiOgon' timestamp='1318844348' post='1406661'] Just what I was thinking, would have been a most useful optional extra & quite rare amongst gigmobiles [/quote] With what my singer unleashes before every gig, i'd be much happier for the toilet not to be in the van that i have to sit in...

Strangely, my Ibanez GSR200. Its been modded (Is happening right now, like it has been for 3 months) thrown around, dropped, beaten, broken, covered in stickers, even been through an incident involving a BMX and Toyota Yaris and survived (without going out of tune might i add, perfecet Drop D). It only cost me £149.99 in 2007 but i still love the thing. Took out the 2 band EQ, and converting it to fully passive, going to stick a Wizard Thumper in there, with some new hardware, give it a really good setup, maybe a refin and defret sometime in the future, who knows, but i wont sell it on (Partly because its worth f*ck all). EDIT: I ripped out the Jazz pup too, it was unnecessary, but now i have a big hole in my bass, covered by some strange sticker with glow in the dark eyes on it that i got from Kerrang! Magazine. Liam

I was having problems yesterday on my home pc (XP/Firefox) with the site either not loading at all, or taking ages to load and then coming up with what looks like a mobile version, not had chance to try it today though, so it might (And knowing my luck, after i post this, will) be fine. Liam

I normally get in contact with the headline act beforehand, more as a matter of discussing cabs than kits, but i do throw that in there too. Our drummer has no problems with sharing his kit, even actually let another drummer use his whole kit before now (Breakables included, the guy was a good friend) without any problems. His kit is easy enough to change to a lefty configuration, so even Dad3353 could play it, its pretty much all on its own stand (Except the ride which is mounted on the kick) so its pretty versatile. Edit: Although i check about drums myself anyway, its normally organised by the promoters that we work with for multi-band gigs, i just like to be sure. Liam

I use either a Chase 20ft right angled, or a Venom Sidewinder 20ft and both have lasted me 2-3 years so far without problems. I am going for OBBM cables when i get my wireless though, because the supplied ones are normally crap. Liam

I'm really glad that white Jazz doesnt have a maple fretboard, otherwise i would be all over it.... Liam

Definately agree with Mike there, an M9 or M13 would be my first choice for something like this, which is strange, as i'm not that much of a fan of Line 6, although the M series are definately quality pieces of kit. Liam

[quote name='Dave Vader' timestamp='1318521567' post='1403291'] Oh, that one isn't real (had no idea my brainchat was, quite chuffed now) [/quote] It should be real, i might register it as some strange bass related site that Fenders arent allowed on. Liam

[quote name='Geddys nose' timestamp='1318516950' post='1403205'] Tuning up my Status and this guy walks over and says ' So you can't afford a Fender then' 'No mate,I'm still saving for one' mutters fack off under my breath! [/quote] Should've just gone "Well i had one, but it was a pile of sh*t so i sent it back to noteveryonehasafender.com and bought a Squier instead" Liam

The sound of servers and a beeping UPS... Ohh you mean music? [url="http://www.myspace.com/boominband"]Boomin[/url], Evanescence, Paramore and A Day To Remember are whats taking my fancy at the moment. Liam

[quote name='Dave Vader' timestamp='1318515691' post='1403185'] .... over on Brainchat.co.uk [/quote] After spotting that i just had to check if its real, and it actually is!!!! Liam

Only played both briefly, so i can't really comment on the playability much, but they both have a damn good sound, Spector only marginally beating Warwick in that area, but most (85%) of Warwick basses that i've seen are just ugly on a new level, whereas Spector have that gorgeous holoflash finish, as mentioned above, and just generally look better in my eyes. Liam

I'm feeling a green or red sparkle/flake finish with matching LED's (Okay, maybe a bit farfetched) on that myself, just as nugget seems to be. Liam

To me, its if its in an Arena, its a Concert, if its in a pub or club, its a gig. Liam

[quote name='apa' timestamp='1318413745' post='1401717'] I think before anyone critisises this bass think back to the law of the jungle......... Your walking through the trees and come across a camp where there is a hut twice as ugly and twice the size of yours with a bed twice as ugly and twice the size of yours with a club resting against it twice as ugly and twice the size of yours. Then you hear a distant THUD....THUD....THUD.... of footsteps twice as loud and twice as ugly as yours. What do you do? stop and take the p*ss?? Just a thought A [/quote] Well if the dozy tw*t has left his club outside his front door, and walked off as well, he's obviously lacking in brain capacity, so i would confuse him with large words such as discombobulated (What the hell does that actually mean, if its real?) until he gets angry and accidentally runs off a nearby cliff, then i would make his hut look better and live in it. Back on topic, there are some fugly basses in this thread, i mean really f*ck ugly... Liam
